The show will begin at 7:30 p.m. in the University Center’s C.J. Davidson Conference Center. Admission is free for ASU students and will be $5 per person for the general public.

The opening act will be “Saturday Night Live” writer Streeter Seidell. He will be followed on stage by the main attraction, SNL cast member Aidy Bryant.

Seidell first gained popularity acting in comedy skits on the CollegeHumor.com website. His video series, “Prank Wars,” went viral and eventually led to his own TV series, “Pranked,” on MTV. In 2013, he began writing for the ABC sitcom “Trophy Wife” before joining the SNL writing staff in 2014. He also hosts a weekly podcast titled “The Talk of Shame Show” on his website at www.streeterseidell.com.

An SNL cast member since 2012, Bryant began her career touring with the musical improv group, Baby Wants Candy, and then joined The Second City comedy improv group, performing at comedy clubs in Chicago. She has had recurring acting roles in IFC’s “Comedy Bang Bang” and the web series “Horace and Pete” and has appeared in Comedy Central’s “Broad City,” Hulu’s “The Awesomes” and HBO’s “Girls.”
